This comes as no surprise;
The members of Sioux Falls-based national recording act The Spill Canvas are taking a break. It’s unclear when, or even if, they’ll reunite.
“The band is on a bit of a hiatus,” drummer Joe Beck responded to questions on Facebook from the Argus Leader.
IMO this is a good thing. I have always kind of thought of the band as a flash in the pan. I have been familiar with Nick for a very long time, and have considered him very talented, and my assumption is that he will do some solo stuff. Good for him. That is how Nick started out in coffee houses around town and that is where he is strongest.
But what is odd about this story is the ‘presumed mystery’ behind the breakup. C’mon people, while I don’t have the inside scoop, one wonders how the publisher of our newspaper can’t just ask his son Joe, “What’s up?”
